This is a large, 10.9" wide Coroniceras from Balingen, Germany. One side of it has been nicely prepared from the hard limestone while the reverse side is in a natural state. comes with an acrylic display stand.
Ammonites were predatory mollusks that resembled a squid with a shell. These cephalopods had eyes, tentacles, and spiral shells. They are more closely related to a living octopus, though the shells resemble that of a nautilus. True ammonites appeared in the fossil record about 240 million years ago. The last lineages disappeared 65 million years ago at the end of the Cretaceous.
